On loan Fulham striker Josh Maja says he is still committed to playing for Nigeria following his deadline day January transfer loan move from Bordeaux.
The 22 year old started the season as first choice striker at Bordeaux but after scoring just two goals in 17 league games this season he was deemed surplus to requirements.
Fulham who have been keen on him for a while offered him a route back to English Football where he impressed for Sunderland in League one scoring 17 goals in 49 games. A tally which earned him the move to France.
Maja played for Nigeria in 2019 on the 9th of October precisely in the 2-2 draw against Ukraine but since then he hasn’t gotten a look in. He is however willing to wait for his chance and vows to grab it once it comes.
“ It’s very simple. My mind is on doing well for Fulham and helping the team achieve their aims this season. The national team of Nigeria is a priority but I have to earn the right to play for the team by doing well
for Fulham”, he told Owngoalnigeria.com.
